Yep apparently for some drinking coffee makes anything possible, but for me its tea (but you knew that anyway!) Here is my initial sketch and cutting process before I reveal the final piece. I made this to fit in an A4 frame (or A4 mount) so its easier to make and frame for a gift this Christmas, and this size frame is widely available on the high street. Hope you all like it!

Finally finished the last design in my Christmas series of papercuts, 'Winter Wonderland' is now available for download for hand cutting and SVG file for cutting machines.
All templates and cutting files are for personal use only. Not for resale.

Yes! the first two designs are finally finished. I'm just finishing of the third ready for sale too, and there should hopefully be another 2 available very soon, so five in total. Here are a few pictures and links to my Etsy shop:

About Me

I am a graphic designer with a passion for typography and a new found love for paper cutting. I have a BA(Hons) degree in Graphic Design and a member of the Internation Society of Typographic Designers and have gained over 12 years experience working in a busy design studio on the south coast of England, working with clients such as Virgin Media, Molson Coors and Hall & Woodhouse (Badge Ales). I discovered papercutting when I wanted to create a gift to celebrate our first wedding anniversary, from then on I was hooked! Each design is first hand drawn, and then interpreted on the computer. I hand cut each design from one piece of paper as well as digitally cutting. I now create paper cutting templates that can be purchased from my Etsy shop.
I live in the New Forest with my husband, Allan, daughter, Emilia and golden retriever, Poppy and of course Mouse (my companion since I was 6 months old).
